olchik [2.2K]

Answer: "The rise in the price of a pair of running shoes will increase the supply of running shoes".

This statement is false because a decrease in demand for running shoes does not increase the price of a pair of running shoes and an increase in the price of a pair of running shoes does not increase the supply of running shoes.

This occurs as the price of a pair of running shoes increases,therefore decreasing the demand and thus the supply will not increase.

A fast-food restaurant has determined that the chance a customer will order a soft drink is 0.90. The proba- bility that a custo

azamat

Answer:

(a) The probability that the order will include a soft drink and no fries is 0.45.

(b) The probability that the order will include a hamburger and fries is 0.48.

Explanation:

Let the events be denoted as follows:

S = an order of soft drink

H = an order of hamburger

F = an order of french fries.

Given:

P (S) = 0.90

P (H) = 0.60

P (F) = 0.50

(a)

It is provided that the event of ordering a soft drink and fries are independent.

If events A and B are independent then the probability of event (A ∩ B) is:

$P(A\cap B)=P(A)\times P(B)$

Compute the probability that the order will include a soft drink and no fries as follows:

$P(S\cap \bar F)=P(S)\times P(\bar F)\\=P(S)\times[1-P(F)]\\=0.90\times (1-0.50)\\=0.45$

Thus, the probability that the order will include a soft drink and no fries is 0.45.

(b)

It is provided that the conditional probability that a customer will order fries given that he/she has already ordered a hamburger as, P (F|H) = 0.80.

The conditional probability of an event B given another event A has already occurred is:

$P(B|A)=\frac{P(A\cap B}{P(A)}$

Compute the probability that the order will include a hamburger and fries as follows:

$P(F|H)=\frac{P(H\cap F)}{P(H)}\\P(H\cap F)=P(F|H)\times P(H)\\=0.80\times 0.60\\=0.48$

Thus, the probability that the order will include a hamburger and fries is 0.48.

Kirk Corporation acquired equipment costing $3,000, promising to pay cash for it in 60 days.

Due to the equipment was finance by the supplier by 60 days it has a positive impact on assets and liabilities.

The others transactions:

Kirk Corporation purchased $1,750 of supplies for cash, it has no impact because the supplies was paid with cash, so the impact on assets is zero.
The land had cost $7,500 and it was sold for $7,500 cash. The land it's a long term assets that was sold for cash, so it was converted to current assets in money.
Kirk Corporation signed an agreement, the impact it's in the next month, so it has no impact the current month analized.

What is the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for ABC Limited which has the following capital structure? $5m of equity wit

katrin2010 [14]

The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for ABC Limited is 12.63%

The weighted average cost of capital(WACC) of a firm is the average cost of finance incurred by the firm on all its sources of finance.

It is determined as the sum of the cost of each source of finance multiplied by their respective weights in the firm's capital structure.

By weights, I mean the percentage of funding each source contributes to the total finance available at the firm's disposal.

WACC=(weight of equity*cost of equity)+(weight of mezzanine finance*cost of mezzanine finance)+(weight of debt*cost of debt)

weight of equity=equity finance/total finance

cost of equity=15%

weight of mezzanine finance=mezzanine finance/total finance

cost of mezzanine finance=9.5%

weight of debt of finance=debt finance/total finance

total finance=$5m+$2m+$1m

total finance=$8m

WACC=($5/$8*15%)+($2/$8*9.5%)+($1/$8*7%)

WACC=12.63%
